Love (2)
Whoever loves true life, will love true love. ~Elizabeth Barrett Browning

this extraordinary thing called love
and feel the depth,
the delight,
the ecstasy of it,

the world is transformed.
~J. Krishnamurti

imperfect–becomes rich and beautiful, it consists solely of opportunities for
love. ~Søren Kierkegaard

But the end is rest.

drunk on Love whatever will be, will be. ~Rumi
The loving mind can observe peace and joy in one moment, and then grief in
the next moment, and it will not be shattered by the change. A mind filled with
love can be likened to the sky with a variety of clouds moving through it–some
light and fluffy, others ominous and threatening. No matter what the situation,
the sky is not threatened by the clouds. It is free. ~Sharon Salzberg
Before you have freed yourself from your mind–you may get glimpses of true
joy, true love, or of a deep inner peace, still but vibrantly alive. These are
aspects of your true nature. ~Eckhart Tolle

non-objective relationship we do not love others, we ARE others. ~Ramesh
Balsekar
It is love alone that leads to right action. What brings order in the world is to
love and let love do what it will. ~J. Krishnamurti
Love moves without an agenda. It just moves because it is its nature–to move.
~Adyashanti
Love is always bestowed as a gift–freely, willingly, and without expectation.
We don’t love to be loved; we love to love. ~Leo Buscaglia
When your love is pure or spiritual, there is no demand, no expectation. There
is only the sweetest feeling of spontaneous oneness with the human being or
beings concerned. ~Sri Chinmoy
In real love there is no relationship, because there are not two persons to be
related to. In real love there is only love, a flowering, a fragrance, a melting, a
merging. Only in egoistic love are there two persons, the lover and the loved.
And whenever there is the lover and the loved, love disappears. Whenever
there is love, the lover and the beloved both disappear into love. ~Osho
Being the knowing creates a clear space of loving presence that allows all
things and all people to be as they are. ~Eckhart Tolle
The Holy Spirit is our harpist,
And all strings,
Which are touched in Love
Must sound.
~Mechtild of Magdeburg
From pure heart comes pure love which flows out into the universe. ~Morris
Peckham
As you dissolve into love, you’re not thinking about loving; you’re just being
love, radiating like the sun. ~Ram Dass
People will love you, people will hate you, and none of it will have anything to
do with you. ~Abraham-Hicks
If I love you, what business is it of yours? ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
You don’t have to earn or deserve love. You are love. Loving is never about
how others treat you. It is always about how you are treating yourself.
~Rhonda Britten
Love cannot be hoarded. ~Leonard Cohen
Love is not a possession. It is the flow of God’s energy. ~Swami
Chidvilasananda
As long as we possess, we shall never love. ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom. ~Rabindranath Tagore
Love does not cause suffering; what causes it is the sense of ownership, which
is love’s opposite. ~Antoine de St. Exupery
Love is a bird and it loves to be free. It needs the whole sky to grow. ~Osho
You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free. ~Thich Nhat
Hanh
Give everyone the freedom to be who they are. Then you have let go of
demands to be understood, loved, agreed with. ~Adyashanti
We love purely when we release other people to be who they are. ~Marianne
Williamson
Love is not dependency. Dependency robs you of the freedom to be and chokes
the love. Depend on love and love becomes imprisonment; give love and love
becomes your freedom. When you give love it grows; when you demand love
it disappears. There is no way to give love. It comes from giving and expecting
nothing in return. When love comes from giving, it comes to you as grace.
~Yogi Amrit Desai
But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens
dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: let it rather
be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. ~Kahlil Gibran
The moment your heart opens towards me, I am with you wherever you are.
~Osho
I have no fear of losing you, for you aren’t an object of my property, or anyone
else’s. I love you as you are, without attachment, without fears, without
conditions, without egoism, trying not to absorb you. I love you freely because
I love your freedom, as well as mine. ~Anthony de Mello
Love makes you empty — empty of jealousy, empty of power trips, empty of
anger, empty of competitiveness, empty of your ego and all its garbage. But
love also makes you full of things which are unknown to you right now; it
makes you full of fragrance, full of light, full of joy. ~Osho
The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not
to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of
ourselves we find in them. ~Thomas Merton
Love causes us to be deeply connected in an unspoken way. It happens when
we’re really available, really open. ~Adyashanti
Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the
recognition. ~Alexander Smith
I cannot know you if I hold on to the image I have of you. ~Sivananda Radha
Love begins with paying attention to others, with an act of gracious self-
forgetting. ~Anam Cara
In the eyes of Love, all people are doing the best they can. ~Deepak Chopra
All things are beautiful seen through the eyes of love. ~Sathya Sai Baba
Using another as a means of satisfaction and security is not love. Love is never
security; love is a state in which there is no desire to be secure; it is a state of
vulnerability. ~J. Krishnamurti
We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love. ~Sigmund
Freud
I’ve come to believe that total nakedness, that is absolute transparency, that is
utter and unfettered and profound visibility, is the only way that we can truly
love. Anything less, is self-defense. ~Neale Donald Walsch
The most important aspect of love is not in giving or the receiving: it’s in the
being. When I need love from others, or need to give love to others, I’m caught
in an unstable situation. Being in love, rather than giving or taking love, is the
only thing that provides stability. ~Ram Dass
Romantic love is the story of how you need another person to complete you.
It’s an absolutely insane story. My experience is that I need no one to complete
me. As soon as I realize that, everyone completes me. ~Byron Katie
Instead of reacting out of your fear, you need to learn how to respond out of
your love. Romantics are always looking for “The One.” But, everywhere you
go, you’re always (and only) meeting “The One.” Every one is “The One.”
~Chug Hillig
Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations,
we are indeed in heaven. ~Rumi
Each moment from all sides rushes to us the call of love. ~Rumi
It is a great art to have an abundance of knowledge and experience–to know
the richness of life, the beauty of existence, the struggles, the miseries, the
laughter, the tears–and yet keep your mind very simple; and you can have a
simple mind only when you know how to love. ~J. Krishnamurti
The heart has its reasons that reason does not know. ~Pascal
There are basically two movements of consciousness: love and fear. Love is
allowing what is, and fear is resisting it. ~Nirmala
You are love itself when you are not afraid. ~Nisargadatta Maharaj
It is love alone that gives worth to all things. ~St. Teresa of Avila
In every community there is work to be done. In every nation, there are
wounds to heal. In every heart there is the power to do it. ~Marianne
Williamson
Believe in love’s infinite journey, for it is your own, for you are love. Love is
life. ~Rumi
Love is an infinity. So howsoever you open, you will always feel more is
possible. It is a journey which begins, but never ends. Love’s journey begins,
but never ends. It is eternity. ~Osho
I would open each day like a present,
tender toward what ever came my way–
every texture–joy or pain–
searing sun or healing rain,
for I have seen the masks of my Beloved.
~Kirtana
If you truly loved yourself, you could never hurt another. ~Buddha
All deeds of kindness and beneficence take place in the soil of a loving heart.
~Hazrat Inayat Khan
A loving balance does not keep score of giving and receiving–it is all love.
And, makes for a beautiful limitless existence. ~Jeanne Porter Ashley
For true love is inexhaustible; the more you give, the more you have. And if
you go to draw at the true fountainhead, the more water you draw, the more
abundant is its flow. ~Antoine de St. Exupery
When your love touches someone else’s pain, it becomes compassion. ~Steven
Levine
Because of love
I have become
the giver of light.
~Rumi
Love is, above all, the gift of oneself. ~Jean Anouilh
Like a caring mother holding and guarding the life of her only child, so with a
boundless heart hold yourself and all beings. ~Buddha
Give like the rose gives its perfume–effortlessly, unconditionally because it is
its own nature. ~Swami Vivekananda
The ocean has only water to give. No matter what you throw in, it will only
throw water back. Similarly, a Self-realized being is an ocean of love. He has
only love to share. No matter what you throw in, you will only get love. There
is nothing else in there. ~Tarun Sardana
Peace and war start within one’s own home. If we really want peace for the
world, let us start by loving one another within our families. ~Mother Teresa
Love is lost in immensities; it comes in simple, gentle ways. ~Joseph Fort
Newton
Loving action is right action. It’s as simple as giving a hand to someone who
stumbles or picking up a child who has fallen on the floor. We take such direct,
natural actions every day of our lives without considering them special. And
they’re not special. Each is simply the best possible response to that situation
in that moment. ~Bernie Glassman
Where is there is great love there are always miracles. ~Willa Cather
When love is deep much can be accomplished. ~Shinichi Suzuki
